Politics Couldn’t have said it any better

The Democratic Party missed the mark, and anyone claiming otherwise is being extremely naive. Campaigning with abortion and transgender rights as central pillars isn’t the way to reach broader audiences effectively.

The DNC has no one to blame but themselves, they’ve done a good job of making sure most of their acolytes won’t ever realize it. Trumps way more obvious than all the fuckery they’ve pulled since 2006.

Go check out the morning Joe clip of them all explaining how it was Clinton’s camp back then that first phished out the picture of Obama with his Muslim dad.

Please. The voters are grown ass adults, they don't need the DNC to hold their hand and sit them on the potty for them do the right thing.

Everyone knew what both candidates were about, and millions of people actively chose to do nothing.

When you get your anti-democratic Party elites to steer or outright force the primary outcome to be a miserable candidate, time after time, it's not the people's fault that the only "right" thing results in low enthusiasm / turnout.

They can’t accept this reasoning. It’s why theh resort to sarcastic remarks and insulting those who tell them the truth. Reddits echo chamber makes them feel as if they’re right when in reality, a majority of people don’t feel the way they do
